<p><strong>Systolic Blood Pressure</strong> is the top number of your blood pressure. It is the pressure exerted on your blood vessels when the heart contracts and pumps blood out.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Diastolic Blood Pressure</strong> is the bottom number of your blood pressure. It is the pressure exerted on your blood vessels when the heart is relaxing.</p>
